Title: Help: TIN for Canadian?
Post by: Orchidpoet on December 13, 2018, 12:34
I just completed my tax interview.

Then I got an urgent message because I did not have a TIN so I am not eligible for tax exemption.

What is my TIN? Is it the same as Canadian SIN?

Thanks a lot!

Just did mine yesterday so it is still fresh in my mind. When you go into the Tax Interview it gives you a list (country by country) of what number to use if you are not based in the USA. For example, here in the UK, you put in your National Insurance Number. Suggest you go back in and see what is listed for Canada and then use that. Hope that helps! Regards, David.

On a side note I also did my Adobe one yesterday and was impressed that the moment I hit Submit, I got an email back saying my form was validated :)

TIN = SIN
Tax Identification Number which in Canada is the Social Insurance Number
